Tom (holding nose) Cruise. Think he even owns a Mustang. Quite a few NASCAR and other racers fly. I did some flying for Bill Elliot, owns his own airport.
 
Angelina Jolie said flying is better than sex? Obviously, she doesn't know where to shop ;)

 
Chuck Yeager, c'mon he was in that movie "The Right Stuff". (bartender scene @Pancho's)

I was thinking about pilots who are alive. Did John Denvers plane run out of fuel?

Nope. A canard can roll quite rapidly just by applying rudder pedals. Most likely in JD's case he applied rudder while reaching back to switch tanks. Over the ocean, hard to determine sky from water and a recipe for disaster.
 
I almost met Harrison Ford at Oshkosh back when he was still the head of Young Eagles. The rumor was that he would walk the flight lines talking to owners about their planes. I was on the tram coming back from the Ultralight Barn and saw him walking into Vintage. Looks like most people left him alone, which I bet he likes.

That would've been great! I never met him but he seems like an approachable guy and he probably would've spoke about airplanes with you.
 
Of course, there have been a couple of famous Yankee pitchers who were pilots:

I guess. I tried once, but it didn't stick.

I am a football (both round and pointy) fan. Actually, as far as pointy football goes, I am Colts fan more than a fan of the sport as a whole.

Football is good too, I follow all of them when time permits....Golf too if I'm desperate enough for sports :)

What, they're not the same thing? Oops. My bad. I'm not much of a baseball fan.

I'm not really a fan either. I was a bit of a Yankee fan when I was younger so that is why I knew that. I grew out of watching baseball though I still will watch grass grow or paint dry when I have the chance.

What era Yankees?

Reggie Jackson? Thurman Munson? or Mickey Mantle?
 
Mostly during the 70s and the early 80s when I was teenager and young adult.
Munson was a player for most of that time and Jackson for a few years. Mantle was a little before my time.
 
Bruce Dickinson.
Not only does he fly 'Ed Force One' Iron Maidens touring 747 and fly for a Charter Airline he also flies a Fokker Triplane as a member of The Great War Display Team.
They flew over the Sonisphere Festival in 2014.
Here is the Video.

 
Am I too late for the obligatory "You don't know the difference between pitching and catching" joke?
 
Yep I got them mixed up...totally two different actors...but in the same family I guess :)

Not at all!

I just assume if they are baseball players they all play for the pink team. Not that there's anything wrong with that.
